By 14 November 2017No Comments

CREATe is delighted to announce Naomi Korn as an Industry Fellow. The Industry Fellows scheme was established to further develop and deepen connections with industrial partners and stakeholders. Naomi will write about copyright for museums and cultural heritage for CopyrightUser.org. Based on her extensive experience in the field, she will identify the copyright knowledge needs of museums in the UK and produce sector-specific guidance.

Naomi said: “I’m thrilled to have been appointed a CREATe Industry Fellow. I am a great fan of the work of CREATe in raising the level of awareness and engagement with copyright. I’m looking forward to working with CREATe in producing practical information for museums about the impact of copyright on their activities”.

Naomi is a specialist in copyright & compliance and the Managing Director of her own company, Naomi Korn Copyright Consultancy (NKCC), which she established over 15 years ago. As Chair of the Libraries and Archives Copyright Alliance (LACA) from 2013 – 2017, she led the reform of the UK’s copyright laws on behalf of the cultural heritage sector, which resulted in new UK copyright exceptions in 2014. A Trustee of the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professional (CILIP), Naomi is a visiting lecturer at City University, University College London and Kingston University.
